Nobunaga is engaged against his will to the daughter of The Viper of Minou, Kichou--secretly a ninja. After the wedding, she tries to kill Nobunaga, but he talks her out of it. She then attempts suicide, but Nobunaga convinces her to remain with him.
With my death as a rallying cry, the Oda
will likely call for Mino's destruction,
Vor dem Hintergrund meiner Ermordung
Con mi muerte como grito de guerra,
los Oda exigirán la destrucción de Mino,
Minha morte será um grito de guerra,
Oda clamará pela destruição de Mino,
